An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2026-50229 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- tomcat (Bitnami): affected all versions; fixed in 9.0.101, 10.1.37, 11.0.5\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-50229/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-50229/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-50229","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-50229/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-50229","record":{"aliases":["BIT-tomcat-2026-50229","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-50229","GHSA-pg42-rg8c-j886","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-50229"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Apache Tomcat","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary scripts in the browser of a user interacting with the number guess example in Apache Tomcat.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"xss"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"apache","cpe":[{"product":"tomcat","vendor":"apache"}],"cvss":{"score":6.1,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-80","name":"Improper Neutralization of Script-Related HTML Tags in a Web Page"}],"description":"Improper Neutralization of Script-Related HTML Tags in a Web Page (Basic XSS) vulnerability in the number guess example for Apache Tomcat.\n\nThis issue affects Apache Tomcat: from 11.0.0-M1 through 11.0.22, from 10.1.0-M1 through 10.1.55, from 9.0.0.M1 through 9.0.118, from 8.5.0 through 8.5.100, from 7.0.0 through 7.0.109.
